I find this confusing as written:
"The IT team has adopted a philosophy of rapidly testing prototypes with real data but also failing fast as well, said Mr. Soderstrom.". It seems like qualifying words are missing. Have they adopted a philosophy of failing fast? Then it could have said but also *of* failing fast (of implying philosophy of).
Or are they failing fast at adopting the philosophy of rapid prototyping & testing? If the later it could have said so i.e but they *are* failing fast.

As for the context - it's great to see that NASA has caught on to the need for leveraging COTS technology ...what took them so long? The military has been emphasizing COTS for decades - not just to save a buck (rare in the military) but for opportunity and short schedule sake.
